Isn't it the only time you can change cues, or the configuration of the cue, is directly after the break anyway?

Sign me up for 200 tickets, as long as they're not more than $1...lol.

Chris, When you say "bend" refering to draw shots do you mean any tension in the shaft what so ever? If you don't drop your elbow you will always bend, or have tension on, the shaft. Thanks for your reply.

I think you are absolutely right! I can't wait to be able to give my first review of how the cue plays and post some detailed pictures for the group!!

Yes, I am indeed! I will have quite the little collection once I get all of the cues I have on order. The hardest thing will be which cue to play with at any given time!

This wouldn't be design theft, it's a copywrite infringement and from past threads it appears that I shouldn't even ask the subject of the photo but the photographer. Since I got the pictures from their websites and the photographers aren't listed that wasn't possible. I did, however, send...

I was only able to contact one of the three and got her permission. I sent the other two emails from their website and never got an answer so I took a chance that they wouldn't mind.

The cue looks incredible! I can't wait to see it in person.

There is definitely something to be said for plane-janes where a nicely figured exotic wood is featured! Great cue. I hope it hits as well as it looks!

Are they actual prongs or are they just "painted-on" or decals?

Wow, that sounds like a great deal! After all, I'm ordering these customs so that I can eventually trade them for moochies...lol.

Yeah, I won that auction and I couldn't be happier with my purchase! This Moochie is worth every penny. The amazing thing is that the two pieces do in fact go together to make one!!

Are you Sam Jackson?!

I think the best name for the best jump/break is: Gilbert J/B...lol.

Yeah, all of my cues are custom, meaning that I ordered them and designed them with the cuemaker. I've purchased spec cues before that were designed by someone else with the intent of selling to someone like me. I've also customized a cue by altering the shaft taper. It's all semantics...

Hey, all the cues that I have on order are from cuemakers who have been making cues for more than a year! Everything else is pretty much right on the money though...lol.

1) I've had a spec Gilbert, a spec DP and a spec Skip Weston and now have a custom Skip Weston with a custom Gilbert, Edwin Reyes, Skip Weston and Paul Fanelli on order. 2) I look for slightly forward weighted with well distributed balance and a semi-firm hit. 3) Don't know, I'm not good at...

Hey, I resemble that remark! My reasons for purchasing custom cues is I can't get what I like in a production cue. I like even spliced points with either hardwood veneers, recut points or regular veneers if they are very well executed. I like sharp inlays and exotic hardwoods. While the hit...

Thanks for answering Mike! I thought I'd get a few more responses though. I didn't post this to imply that cuemakers should cover warpage or not I just thought it would be interesting to get a cuemakers take on it and how they personally handle it when it happens. Thanks again for the reply.

That is of course unless my OCBD goes uncontrolled again then I'll have to have cues from them all...lol.
